I have never devoured a trilogy so quickly as I did this one.

As someone who has not read any of Alta’s stories (except ones she has co-written under the pen name Blake Hensley with Zoe Blake), I was extremely impressed with this trilogy and how each book is not only amazing on it’s own, but connects wonderfully to other stories.

House of Heathens are the stories of Apollo, Phoenix and Athena – the children of the Godwin’s.

I don’t even know where to start or what to say. These stories became more addictive as read each one. Apollo we meet in the first book. We get to know Phoenix and his mysterious ways and then Athena – she is so much more than people realize.

Each story was riddle with suspense, twists and turns and lots of spice. I love that each story held it’s own appeal and kept me captivated throughout each one. But I loved how I got the overall vibe as I was able to read these stories as a whole and not have to stop in between.

Alta has quickly become a favorite of mine with her detailed writing and her intriguing characters with entertaining story lines that keep readers captive the entire time.

Release Day Blitz…The Substitute by Kristen Proby

Will they be able to resist each other?
Or does fate have other plans?

The Substitute, a Single in Seattle novella from New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby & 1001 Dark Nights is now live!

Derek Langley can’t keep an assistant to save his life. He’s grumpy, demanding, and sometimes mean, which mirrors his reputation in court. Derek doesn’t have time to coddle an employee, so when the temp agency informs him their next placement will be the last, he knows he’s doomed.

Maya Sterling is excited to move to Seattle. She wants to be closer to her siblings and her new friends, and a position with a temp agency fits the bill for her new life in the city. She doesn’t plan on walking in and finding a sexy British grouch for a boss, but his gruff nature doesn’t really bother her. In fact, she’s attracted to his rough-around-the-edges nature.

They quickly realize the attraction is mutual and steam up the office. But Maya’s position with Derek is temporary, and she knows she must maintain a professional distance to preserve her sanity.

Keep reading for a look inside The Substitute!

“So, why does Gray think your boss is a jerk?” Liv asks me as we walk into the department store.
“I don’t think he’s a jerk, but I’ve only known him for a week.”
Sidney scowls at me. “Why would Gray think that, then?”
“I guess Derek has a reputation for being hard to work for.” I shrug and hold up a navy-blue dress, but Stella takes it out of my hands and puts it back on the rack.
“That’s for someone in their sixties,” she informs me, shaking her head.
“Thanks. Anyway, I admit Derek can be abrupt and short, but he doesn’t bother me. At least not so far.”
I glance over at Liv, who’s watching me.
“What?”
“I’m telling you, you like him,” she says, narrowing her eyes.
“Look—”
“He doesn’t just not bother you. You’re hot for him.”
“Is he attractive?” Sidney asks, reaching for her phone. “Hell, I’ll google him. What’s his name?”
“Derek Langley,” I reply and bite my lip. This is fun. And a little nerve-racking. “He’s British. So, he does have a sexy accent.”
“Oh,” Sid says, turning the phone so the others can see. “Yeah, he’s fucking attractive.”
“Hot,” Stella agrees. “Dang, Maya, you should go for it. Wait, is he married?”
“He doesn’t wear a ring.” I consider that, tapping my finger on my chin. “Of course, not everyone does. I don’t think he’s married.”
“I can’t find any evidence of a wife,” Sidney says, tapping on her phone some more. “Unless it’s recent.”
“He’s my boss,” I reply, shaking my head. “Sure, there’s some chemistry there, but I work for him. I don’t think that’s ethical.”
I’ve caught him looking at my lips several times, and when we stand close together, he shoves his hands in his pockets as if he’s restraining himself to keep from touching me.
But maybe that’s all just in my head.
“You said yourself it’s only a thirty-day assignment,” Liv says, waving me off. “I say take those thirty days and have fun with them.”
“We’re going straight to the lingerie department,” Stella decides.
“You guys.” I laugh but don’t stop them from pulling me to the intimates section, where they choose lots of lacy, silky, beautiful things for me to try. “What if I’m being silly, and he wants no part in anything sexy with me?”
“Number one, he’d be stupid,” Sid says. “And number two, if he’s not interested, someone else will be.”
“You have a point. Okay, let’s do this.”

Release Day Blitz & Review…Twisted Truths by P. Rayne

Twisted Truths by P. Rayne is now live! 

A dark contemporary billionaire romance with a tortured hero, touch her and die, and secret society tropes from USA Today Bestselling Author duo P. Rayne.

My life changed forever the day I saved Obsidian Voss from drowning in the ocean.

When my father lands himself in trouble, I take a job working for Obsidian, one of the country’s most famous billionaires. It doesn’t take long for me to realize that there’s more behind the façade he presents to the world—a darker, more dangerous side.

Still, I’m drawn to him. As he introduces me to a world I never knew existed, I find myself falling for him. But I’m torn because I came to Midnight Manor with a hidden agenda, and I’ve been lying to Obsidian from the start. Eventually, he’s going to find out.

My secret will change everything. And if Obsidian really is the monster he thinks he is, what will he do to me?

Twisted Truths is the final, full-length novel in the Midnight Manor series and this duo definitely delivers it perfectly.

As with all the other books, this is a fairytale re-telling and this was my first one of The Little Mermaid. It can be easily read as a standalone but these books are so much better read in order as you get to the know the Voss brothers.

Ariana is now trying to live an honest life, one she never really had growing up and working with her father and brother as con-artists. However, when she finds out that her father has put their lives in danger by promising money he can never deliver on, she finds herself back in her old shoes again.

Sid has always been the most mysterious brother out of the four of them. He’s there but we never get to really know much about him except he’s quiet and keeps to himself. In this book, we get to see why and have a better understanding of this brooding man. Also – I got the tiny hint they threw in the book and it makes me love this man even more for it.

These ladies definitely upped the spice and naughtiness in this one and I loved it as it suited the relationship between Sid and Ariana. It was great to see things develop between Sid & Ariana in a natural way, giving readers more to their story.

A fabulous ending to this series and one I highly recommend reading!

Release Day Blitz…The Bodyguard and The Bombshell by Lexi Blake

The Bodyguard and the Bombshell by Lexi Blake is now live! 

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Lexi Blake comes a new story in her Masters and Mercenaries series…

The Bodyguard…

Nate Carter left Australia’s elite SASR unit after a tragic accident. Shattered by the experience, he thought taking a job in the States might be a good way to start over. His father’s former employer, McKay-Taggart, has a position for him in the bodyguard unit. He never imagined himself risking his life for celebrities and the wealthy, but it will do for now. It will also give him a chance to reconnect with old friends, including the girl who’d been like a little sis to him ten years before.

These days, however, his feelings for Daisy O’Donnell are anything but brotherly.

The Bombshell…

Daisy O’Donnell is a girl on a mission, and it does not include falling for one of her brother’s best friends. She has plans, and while chaos always seems to follow her, she’s determined to see this through. Daisy finds herself in need of a bodyguard when a job goes terribly wrong. She’s sure her dad will find someone suitable, but she didn’t expect a big, gloriously masculine Aussie to show up ready to take a bullet for her. Maybe spending some time with Nate Carter won’t be so bad after all.

An explosive match…

Thrown together by danger, Nate and Daisy can’t resist the insane chemistry between them. But when his past and her present collide, they must decide if they can hold it together or go their separate ways forever.

Midnight Whispers by P. Rayne is now live!

But when I break free of the chains binding me to my family estate, I find myself with nowhere to go. Until Nero Voss, the youngest of the billionaire Voss brothers, offers me a room at Midnight Manor. Now, I’m under his watchful gaze and enjoying it more than I should.

I shouldn’t give in to temptation, he is my stepsister’s ex-fiancé after all, but the pull toward him grows stronger by the day. I fight, but I’m losing the battle.

Nero is keeping secrets, though.

What he doesn’t know is that I’m keeping secrets, too.

Midnight Whispers is the third book in the Midnight Manor series. It’s a wonderful retelling of Cinderella and features Nero Voss. Even though each of these books can be read as a standalone, I HIGHLY encourage readers to start from the beginning to get the full experience of these four brothers.

Cinder is the perfect Match for Nero in so many ways. I loved how this story plays out; the pacing is perfect and how things unfold between these two suits their story well.

While this is listed as a dark romance, it’s definitely on the lighter side of dark. It has some light BDSM scenes and keeps things intriguing.

I love that each book in this series fits the brother and his mannerisms so well. P. Rayne delivers another excellent book in this series. I cannot wait for the final book, Sid’s story.

Cover Reveal…The Chrysalis of Aurelia George by B.B. Reid

B.B. Reid has revealed the gorgeous covers for The Chrysalis of Aurelia George!

Releasing: July 18, 2024

From bestselling author B.B. Reid comes a wicked retelling of your favorite fairytale.

America’s sweetheart has been canceled. 

From teen star to international phenom to the biggest celebrity in the world, Aurelia George has suddenly found herself on the other side of adoration. The public thinks they hate her when they never really knew her. The saddest tragedy of all is that she doesn’t know herself. 

Done with the fame, glitz, and glam—the whole doe-eyed princess charade—Aurelia decides she’s taking back her life, even if it costs her everything. 

But her uncle has other plans.

Shipped far away until the heat dies, Aurelia finds herself in the one place where her name means nothing. When a blizzard causes her plane to crash, she becomes stranded in the wilds of Northern Canada, a sole survivor with no one to turn to.

No one except them.

The misanthropic mountain men who’ve shut themselves away. 

It’s their cabin Aurelia finds in the icy wilderness and their obsession she ignites when they discover her sleeping in one of their beds. Thorin, Khalil, and Ezekiel (and all of his personalities) have only longed for one thing in nine long years…a woman to warm their beds.

Surviving a plane crash, wolves, avalanches, frozen lakes, and a harsh winter with three feral men is nothing compared to Aurelia’s hardest trial of all—finding herself.

The Chrysalis of Aurelia George is a dark, contemporary romance. Please refer to the trigger warnings before reading.

Shattered Vows is the second book in the Midnight Manor series. It can be read as a standalone but you will want to read the first one after reading this, if you haven’t yet.

I love this fairy-tale retelling of Rapunzel. These two authors truly know how to take reimagine a fairytale in today’s modern world and make it very intruiging.

Shattered Vows is Kol and Rapsody’s story. They met many years ago but had an abrupt ending far too quickly. Now that Kol has found her once again, he doesn’t want to give her up as quickly.

I really enjoyed how this story unfolded and all the ins and outs that took place. It’s not as cut and dry as one thinks with a fairytale retelling; there are quite a few surprising twists that keep this entire story enthralling.

I am absolutely loving these stories and cannot wait for the next one!!

Release Day Blitz & Review…Red Kingdom by Rachel Demeter

Historical Romance (Medieval); Dark Romance Series; Fairy Tale Retellings: Book Two (Standalone)

Little Red Riding Hood reimagined with a dark and realistic twist.

Princess Blanchette’s world shatters when the Black Wolf tears apart her castle and everything she holds dear. All she clings to is the vow she made to her grandmother on her deathbed.

Hailed as the people’s champion, Sir Rowan Dietrich liberates the capital in a quest for vengeance. He takes Winslowe Castle with an army at his back and his wolf, Smoke, at his side.

United by a shared cause and powerful attraction, Rowan and Blanchette embark on a journey of self-discovery and redemption—a path filled with loss, transformation, and ultimately, the healing power of love.

Can Norland’s resplendent princess, with her captivating beauty and spirit, tame the fabled Black Wolf?

Inspired by the fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood, Red Kingdom is a passionate, slow-burn historical romance about the enduring quest for love and the longing for a world at harmony.

*Red Kingdom is a standalone installment in a series of reimagined fairy tales. Due to graphic content and mature themes, reader discretion is advised.

What you can expect from Red Kingdom…

Dark, Medieval Setting

Enemies to Lovers

Slow Burn

Broken Alpha Hero

Fierce Heroine

He Falls First

Age Gap

A Wolf Animal Companion

Angst

Redemption

Warring Kingdoms

Historical Intrigue

Epic Battles

Game of Thrones Vibes

WOW!! Fantastic read from Rachel!

For someone who’s not a fan of historical romance, Rachel definitely knows how to keep a reader vested in the story.

Red Kingdom is a unique take on the retelling of the fairytale, Little Red Riding Hood.

The story starts off with some great action but then Rachel takes readers into a deeper story, allowing readers to see who these characters are.

Red Kingdom is definitely more heavy on the plot & character development and less reliant on the romance and chemistry between Rowan & Blanchette. And honestly, that’s what made this story even more enticing.

Rachel delivers a story that has depth, many layers, and characters that readers will empathize with. I truly loved watching Rowan and Blanchette grow in their own ways as the story unfolded. It was just another layer to a very well plotted out story that gives readers the HEA they enjoy.

Red Kingdom is highly recommend to any fantasy or historical romance reader.

BRILLIANT!! Parker and LJ have once again given readers another phenomenal fairytale retelling.

My Dark Desire was so much more than I anticipated and I loved every bit of this story.

The banter, not just between Farrow and Zach, but between all the guys, between Farrow and her ladies – the dialogue overall was perfection. Loved it!!

I had not anticipated to laugh so much with this book. It was just another bonus to this very well written and perfectly paced story

I highly enjoyed all the sub-plots within this book and how everything just blended together wonderfully and kept readers fully engaged from start to finish.

My review is purposely devoid of any story details because you must read this without any more knowledge than the blurb. It’s so much enjoyable when you experience the story just like I did.

Another great story from these two! I am looking forward to Oliver’s story and how that one will play out.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Moonlit Thorns by P. Rayne

Moonlit Thorns by P. Rayne is now live! 

No one knows what happens up at Midnight Manor.

The home of the Voss brothers sits like a sentinel looking down on our small town, remaining a mystery. The four brooding billionaires rarely leave the confines of the iron gates, fueling rumors that have existed for decades.

When my father dies, all the security I’ve known is ripped away, forcing me to come face to face with the eldest brother, Asher Voss. His outward beauty is just as I’d heard—it belies a predatory nature, irresistibly drawing me in.

A bargain is made, and I have no choice but to live in the shadowy confines of his gothic manor to save my family. As time passes, it becomes harder and harder to deny our attraction.

Asher Voss might be too old for me, and he’s definitely cursed by his own demons, but an inferno of passion between us threatens to either consume or destroy us both.

MOONLIT THORNS is a dark, contemporary romance, Beauty and the Beast retelling.

Great start to this new series! These two authors set the stage for what is to come in this series and they did it wonderfully.

Moonlit Thorns is a unique retelling of the fairytale, Beauty and the Beast. I have read quite a few fairy tale retellings and this is definitely one of my favorites.

The story between Asher and Annabelle plays out so natural and beautifully. I enjoyed that readers are kept on their toes with how these two reacted to one another each time they are thrust together.

Yes, this a dark romance with BDSM, but it’s on the lighter side of that. I know dark readers will still enjoy the overall vibe that P. Rayne brings to this story, but if readers who aren’t into super dark reads or the elements of BDSM, this is definitely on the lighter side and would be a great “taste” to see if it’s to your liking.

P. Rayne does a great job of creating this town and the vibes around the Voss family and their history. I love all the nuances they have added in and giving hints at what is to come with each brother. The interactions between everyone was great and just added another layer to the story.

I already know that I am going to thoroughly enjoy this series and the Voss brothers very much.
